Silver Lake Dune Dates for 2013 "Windy City Dune Assault Squad" trips


Recommended Posts

Posting up the dates that our group will be going to Silver Lake this season. We love to add to the group and if any of these dates look good to you...feel free to plan to join us. Many fellow HQ members are already making plans to be there for some of these dates.

 

June 7-8-9   We're staying at the Silver Lake Resort and Campground

 

July 19-20-21  ^^^ same as above ^^^ 

 

August 16-17-18  ^^^ same as above ^^^

 

September 20-21-22 We're staying at the Sierra Sands Resort   (Off peak rate, but still have the Jacuzzi available for post ride party.) 

 

None of these rides are official "HQ rides", but we have been going these same weekends for 15+ years and the weather is always pretty favorable.

I always post these so people who need lots of lead time to get off work can get them on the calendar early.

GET YOUR RIDE DATES ON THE CALENDAR NOW BEFORE SOMEBODY DECIDES TO DRAG YOU TO A LAME BLOCK PARTY/KIDS BIRTHDAY/GRADUATION/CO-WORKER WEDDING!!!

 

Everyone is welcome to join up with us, just post if your planning on making it.

So u are not coming to the hq ride on the 27 ,28

 

Nope. Big family wedding. (Wife is in the bridal party) I'll be up celebrating at the family farm in Wisconsin that weekend. (See what I mean about getting your dates on the calendar first?) LOL

Plus we have been going that July 20th weekend for over 15 years. (I think it's only rained on us that weekend twice in all that time)

Just because the long travel guys picked it, doesn't mean our group is going to bail on that weekend. It's damn hard to find a weekend that works for up to 20 people year after year. LOL 

 

Your going to more than just the one HQ ride aren't you?

Mike did you talk to Bucky about planning to make a Silver Lake trip? 

I've been talking to emtbanshee, 421alkybanshee, hazzardbanshee and a few others about hitting some of these dates.

"Doug" might be bringing his big crew out of Canada for some trips this year. (He's another guy with a big crew.....I think last time we met up with them they brought 15+ people down.)

no holidays  when fast bikes will be out windy?

I was at last years SL HQ ride....but you all want to go a different weekend than last year because of the long travel event. (I'm on race gas and not faster than Lindsay yet, so I've got nothing to prove.) LOL

I'm just posting "For Sure Dates" that I know our group will be going on so any site members that are looking to plan a trip can see when others might be going. We meet new people every year that way.

 (Frankthetank and his brother met up with us last year as well as 421alkybanshee and they were all really cool to hang with.)

I'm going to try to make the Labor day ride....but my ride group doesn't do big weekends because in the past the holiday weekends are a little too dangerous. (Most of them are Duners not draggers) Plus all the hassle as far as the parking lot. 

Working on getting a newer truck with 4 wheel drive so I can go it alone easier. Then I can go any time my schedule permits.

Yeah we understand. You have a nice V-8 sand rail to play with now.  :drool:  You just drop the bike in the sand once and a while to remind everyone who's still Queen of the dunes.  ;) (Your going to have to get Michele in that thing and show her your wheelie skills.)  :jesterlaugh:
